Review Sapphire Princess - California Costal - Apr/May 2012

[Whimsy]

I have thoroughly enjoyed your review and LOVED the photos. You captured so many things on the ship that I noticed were different from the other Princess ships I have sailed. It was nice seeing a new look.

I'm looking forward to seeing more photos. As always, you do a wonderful job with the camera. I'm trying to learn but have a long way to go.

Zef, I laughed through this whole review! Penguins lined up like cruisers on formal night... loved it! Your pics were great, how in the heck did you find the Conservatory? We looked and looked and looked for about 30 minutes and never found it. We finally asked an officer, and though he tried, he had no idea how to get to it either!

Yeah, that pot pie episode was pretty funny. I confess I was the one who suggested the tabasco sauce, but only as a joke. I had NO idea bob would approve that suggestion, and I adored that they brought it out on a silver platter. We had to ask for tabasco sauce in the Moon dining room for our "spicy" soup, which had no spice in it, and we just got a bottle handed to us. Bob, you must have a standing reputation with Princess.

Thanks for taking the time to write and upload this. The pics are particularly nice.

Thank you soooo much for your review and would love to hear from the other as we will be doing the cruise in October except we have no sea days at all - will be tired I'm sure when we return. Would love to get a look at the patters. Again thanks so much Susan

Ship looks beautiful. Sanctuary looks just perfect.

Okay, it looks like I have done Santa Barbara and San Diego. So that just leaves Ensenada and San Francisco. So how about I do Ensenada tonight ...

Good morning Ensenada ...

The sea lions are everywhere ...

This is the tallest building in Ensenada ...

Can you find the one tile that was not set properly?
